Universal Wuhan Lion China Cymbals
Made in China for more than two millennia
Most drummers know that fine professional cymbals have been manufactured in Europe for generations and in Turkey for centuries. But only a few drummers are aware that fine professional cymbals have been made in China for more than two millennia. In fact, some historians credit the Chinese with inventing cymbals for use as musical instruments.
Essentially unchanged for thousands of years
Essentially unchanged for thousands of years, the Wuhan production process starts with an ancient and carefully guarded metal formula. Then skilled craftsmen shape and tune every cymbal by hand. As a result, the Wuhan brand has become legendary for unique special-effects cymbals and gongs. Drummers from all musical genres especially prize the famous Wuhan "Lion" China-type cymbal. In terms of pure authenticity and unique sound, it is the standard by which all other "China" cymbals are measured.
Unique and Authentic
In keeping with the nature of fine handcrafted instruments, no two Wuhan cymbals of any given model sound exactly the same. Along with the immediately identifiable Wuhan character, each cymbal has it own subtle nuances. This diversity within each model provides plenty of selection, while keeping the overall line simple and easy to understand for drummers and dealers alike.
More than you pay for
Best of all, this unique line of cymbals is available at prices that are much lower than those of any professional cymbal brand on the market. This means lower cost for you. But don't let those low prices fool you. When it comes to Universal Wuhan Lion China cymbals, you don't get what you pay for...you get much more!
